In this empowering episode, Gina sits down with Lisa J. Allen—wife, grandmother, former Proverbs 31 executive, and now confidence coach, speaker, and first-time author of Your Confidence Compass: From Self-Doubt to Self-Leadership. Lisa shares her journey of rooting her identity in Christ, rediscovering her confidence, and stepping into a new season of leadership and purpose.They unpack what true godly confidence looks like, how boundaries and self-awareness are tied to freedom, and why confidence isn't about being the loudest in the room—it's about being rooted in your creative design. Lisa opens up about her early struggle with identity, her career shifts, and how her definition of confidence is anchored in courage, action, and grace.Key Takeaways: • Confidence grows through identity in Christ, mindset renewal, and self-leadership • True confidence allows us to create margin, cultivate purpose, and walk into uncertainty with peace • Vulnerability isn't weakness—it's the bridge to connection, leadership, and transformation • Boundaries are a gift that protect your freedom and help you lead with clarityWhether you're starting a second act, building a side hustle, or stepping out in faith for the first time, Lisa offers wisdom, encouragement, and practical insight to help you lead yourself well.Bio: Lisa Allen is a Jesus-loving, coffee-loving, leopard-print loving woman. She has a passion for and connection to women and uses this passion as a speaker, coach and ministry leader. She comes with a combined two decades of non-profit leadership with a national women's ministry and as staff of a large church.

She thought of the title “Remnant Rising” in the evening while talking to God.She says that several of her online accounts were deleted. She believes it's because she thinks she's exposing truths people want to keep hidden.Lori refuses to consider what other people think due to the power of her conviction and faith.[16:10] Lori: “The bottom line is to further the Kingdom. It's to edify the Church and further the Kingdom.”[16:41] The Source of Spiritual GiftsWhen we place our faith in Jesus, the Holy Spirit comes to live within us and gives us a new perspective on everything.We also receive special abilities to use for the Kingdom.Every person is given a gift based on their faith.Lori believes that spiritual gifts empower us, and says that we are “weaponized” by Heaven.[25:49] Understanding Supernatural RevelationsLori describes “rhema words” — passages or words that you read that just jump out at you with their power.[27:07] Reagan: “It's sometimes in word of knowledge and information that the Lord wants us to pray about or think about.”According to Lori, God knows what you need and will send it to you.God will use anyone to send you His message.[30:04] Who Has Spiritual Gifts?Every believer has at least one spiritual gift.

In this episode, we continue to explore the connection between King Solomon—whose name means "peace" and whose reign was marked by the absence of war (1 Kings 5:1–12)—and Jesus Christ, who is declared in Ephesians 2:14–16 to be our peace. But this passage in Ephesians is not just about the absence of external conflict; it's about the internal transformation that had to occur first in Jesus himself, and then in us.We dig into the developmental process that Jesus, as a Jewish man in relatio to Gentile people, underwent in order to become the source of peace. Ephesians gives us a rare glimpse into the spiritual and psychological work that took place in the flesh of Christ—where hostility towards people who were different and hostile towards him was ultimately put to death at the cross. This is especially shocking when we realize that Jesus, as a Jew, had to confront and overcome any and all fleshly, hostile impulses toward Gentiles - even toward the Gentiles who ultimately crucified him.Through this lens, the cross becomes not only the place where Christ died for us, but also the place where the hostility in Christ's flesh died, too. The cross was like a circumcision that finally cut away all hostility from the flesh of Jesus, fully deactivating it, and putting it to tdeath, making possible the creation and completion of a new humanity—one that was created in peace and oneness.We conclude by considering what it means for the same work that was accomplished in Jesus' flesh to now be accomplished in our flesh. The church is not simply called to believe this peace and oneness was developed in Christ, but to participate in it and embody it—a multi-ethnic, multi-cultural, unified people whose peace flows not from mere tolerance or diplomacy, but from the very crucified flesh of Christ.Key Passages:1 Kings 5:1-12Ephesians 2:14-16Explainer Video on how to use www.biblehub.com and www.blueletterbible.orgLeave us a question or comment at our website podcast page.* Intro Music: "Admirable" Carlos Herrera Music

Human love is a complex thing. It's flawed and imperfect and can often be conditional and damaging to us. But God's love for us is different; it's perfect, absolute, and ever-unconditional. Through Christ, his Son, we have been redeemed and all our sins forgiven when we receive Christ as Lord and Savior. Abiding in the confidence that comes from God's love[1] removes all doubts and fear. It's the only transforming love that will never diminish or come to an end.In this episode of the Revelations Podcast, Delaney Dobbs and Beverly Coniaris of She is Becoming Podcast joins us to speak about God's love. They talk about our role as Christians in speaking His truth and embodying and bringing His love to others. They also differentiate between worldly love and God's love and affirms the power of having confidence in God's love.Tune in now to learn more about what the Scriptures say regarding love. Listen to this episode just for you!Here are three reasons why you should listen to this episode:Understand what 1 John 4:7-19 means.Learn why you should be confident in God's love.Be inspired to love others as God loves us.ResourcesMore from the Revelations Podcast: Website | Instagram | Apple PodcastConnect with Delaney and Beverly: She is BecomingShe is Becoming episode with Reagan Kramer [02:12]S1 | Ep.4 // Children of God (ft. Bev Coniaris)Bible Verses:1 John 4:7-19John 3:161 Corinthians 13:4–8aRevelation1 Corinthians 13John 15:9-12Ephesians 2:4-5Proverbs 10:12This Episode is brought to you by: Advanced Medicine Alternativeshttps://www.georgekramermd.com/Episode Highlights[02:28] She is Becoming PodcastDelaney and Beverly started the podcast because they wanted a multigenerational perspective on different topics in the Bible.They talk about anything and everything related to the Bible.Having a multigenerational perspective is unifying. It's important for the Church and culture.Women want to hear from women of all ages. The older and younger generation have a lot to learn from each other.[05:26] How to Love an Angry CultureYou will feel the angst and anger of people by simply living in the culture.In the episode with Reagan, they talked about how to love with healthy boundaries from Scripture while sharing the gospel and reflecting God.The country has never been so divided. It's the role of God's people to have a different voice and bring people together amidst this.It's our job in the Church to love and to be sure of God's love.[07:33] What Stands Out about Love in 1 John 4:7-19 for Delaney1 John 4 was written to a group of churches believing a Gnostic gospel. The false gospel says that the body and mind are separate and evil, and any emotions that have to do with love and joy must be suppressed.The evidence of a Christian that has been changed by Christ is to love and love well.In the passage, John is encouraging Christians on how to love fellow believers and how to be confident in God's love. He also advocates for Christ's divinity and humanity.1 John 4 says that the love of God was made manifest in us. It's rich in doctrine and theology and is practical at the same time.[09:34] What Stands Out about Love in John 7:19 for BevJohn used love as a test of faith and eternal life.Beverly [10:03]: “One of the fruit[s] of the Spirit, if we have the Spirit of God living in us through faith, is love. So if love is not there, the Spirit may not be there, and we may not be God's child.”John is writing to believers; fellow Christians were to love one another.The emphasis is for our love to be a witness of the world. If that disintegrates in the Church, there's no hope for the world.The people of the Church are the ones who have to bring God's love to others.[11:17] On Not Feeling LovedFeelings trump faith and truth. That's our culture.Feelings come and go; they're unreliable. We can experience an up and down in feeling God's love, similar to our relationships.In this situation, we must first recognize why we doubt God's love. Guilt is a big reason why we feel the need to turn away from God. Other causes are disobedience, other people not loving us, and not knowing the Scriptures.What you have to do when you're doubting is to return to the truth that God loves you and believe it.[15:33] Love is from GodGod is the originator of love. We don't come to God and start loving Him; He starts by loving us.The idea that God has initiated His love for you is a foundational truth you can return to when you don't feel loved.God's love is different from human love. His love is agape love or meeting the needs and caring for the receiver of His love.God's love is sacrificial on behalf of the beloved. The cross is God's demonstration of His love.Similarly, loving one another is setting aside our own selfish needs on behalf of others.[18:46] How God's Love Makes a Difference in Our Everyday LifeHis love enables our love. You can see the impact of God's love with how you love those who are hard to love, even from afar.Love is not a feeling; it's a choice and a commitment. It also manifests in discipline and telling truths and consequences, not just affection.Delaney [24:13]: “You can't experience God's love and not love other people.”Just smile at people. It's a small thing, but it's an act of love.God's love gives us the confidence to love ourselves and other people and speak the truth.Tune in to the full episode to hear more examples of how love makes a difference in our everyday life![32:50] Being Confident in God's LoveBeing confident in God's love means that you don't have to do things to earn it.We can express our love back to Him by obeying Him, living in truth, and living as he loves us.There's nothing we could ever do that would cause God to stop loving us. The way he shows us love is never skewed and is always perfect.We try to find the love God gives in all the wrong places. But the only way we will meet that need for love is in Him.[36:18] What the World says Love isOne thing is that love is love and whatever you want it to be. The root of it is nobody in culture knows how to define love.Desensitization to intimacy has impacted our view of love.We've taken a picture of how God is supposed to love and devalued it.Thinking that love is a way to rationalize sin and put it on a pedestal. But if you don't have a relationship with the Lord, you are not equipped to love.The world's love is all self-love and is the opposite of God's love. God affirms that we are to love ourselves, but it can't be void of Him.[41:45] Justification for SinSuppressing all feelings, such as the premise of the church John was writing to, is also unhealthy.The idea that people could do whatever they want with their bodies because it's not associated with the spirit life is a justification for sin.[44:07] Hurting and Loving Each Other as ChristiansJohn 7:19 speaks about loving each other as Christians.It's easy to want to fight back when you get hurt by other Christians. It's not always the right thing to do.Speaking an honest word can be loving, but it's hard. You don't do anybody a favor by saying nothing when you see something.The huge reason culture is angry is because they don't have confidence in God's love.Having a good theology of God's love on top of living it out can help us live confidently in His love.[48:07] Combating Guilt and ShameSpeaking truth to ourselves in love is how we combat guilt and shame.Believe His word and forgiveness as true. Only then can you move on.We like to punish ourselves. If we don't allow Christ to do it, we will do it on ourselves.Perfect love drives out fear.[49:49] Perfect Love Drives out FearConfidence is the opposite of fear. Being confident in God's love is one of the ways you combat fear. It's God's love that's perfect, not our love. But because of that, we don't have to fear.Having fear is fearing losing God's love. But we don't have to because we're secure with His love.Jesus is our Savior. God is our Father.Bev [53:31]: “He is your father. It's not just a picture. It's truth, and that's why we all have the same Father, that's why we're sisters in Christ. So that's why you get the new family. You have that security that this Father's love is perfect love, and then it will drive out the fear of not being loved.”We have to rely on the love God has for us.[55:11] On PropitiationWe can't love people for doing what we need. The only transforming love is Christ.However, people can reflect God's love for you, and you can experience His love through them.Propitiation is a doctrine. It means that justice is needed and has been met.Christ has taken all of God's disapproval and anger towards our sins as born sinners. Our sins have been propitiated through Christ, and God's wrath is over.When you begin to understand that God's not angry with you, then you can start to accept his love.[58:36] How Delaney & Bev Have Come to Treasure God's LoveOurs is not the beginning or definition of love. The love of Christ is something outside of us; it's something not defined by us and is always. It's how Delaney treasures God's love.God's love helps Bev get out of bed in the morning and go to sleep at night.Life is hard sometimes. God's love gives her peace and a secure place to rest.What God's love meant for Bev personally is mending her relationship with her parents and letting God love through her.[1:01:30] Love Covers a Multitude of SinLove covers all wrongs. Christ's love covered the world's multitude of sins in history.Christ's love gives us more grace and the ability to be more compassionate toward people who are hard to love.Loving someone can help bring people out of their sins. Proverbs 10:12 tells us to be that example and not to be overly critical.The simple act of sharing the gospel is love covering a multitude of sins.About Delaney & BeverlyDelaney Dobbs and Beverly Coniaris are the co-hosts of the She is Becoming Podcast.

The Word of God is the foundation of everything that we do as Christians. It is only through deep study of the Word and spiritual revelation that we can grow up in Him. The Word can not simply be something that we hear at church, but we must hide it deep in our hearts. 10/02/2022 - Sunday NightScriptures Used (In Order of Occurrence):Psalm 119:9-11Hebrews 4:12Ephesians 6:17Mark 12:24James 1:22-24Matthew 4:1-4Joshua 1:9, 8I Peter 2:9, 5, 2Acts 17:11Matthew 12:3, 5Matthew 19:4Matthew 21:16, 42Matthew 22:31Mark 12:10, 12:26Luke 6:3Hebrews 4:1-2Romans 10:17-18Deuteronomy 8:3, 16Jeremiah 15:16Job 23:12Psalm 119:28, 97, 103-105, 111, 130, 133Psalm 138:2Psalm 119:160Psalm 42:1-2John 8:37II Timothy 2:15John 5:39Ephesians 5:25-27Jeremiah 20:9
One of the primary focuses of James' epistle is the power of tongue, both for good and evil. The control of one's tongue is the most observable measure of their level of spirituality.

Jump in to test your knowledge of salvation![00:01 - 04:38] Opening SegmentListener review from SarahToday's quiz on salvationPrize for getting all questions correct[04:38 - 21:34] Doctrine of Salvation Quiz: True or FalseAfter Adam and Eve fell into sin, God immediately determined He would save sinners.God's work of salvation depends upon the 3 persons of the Trinity.Every person has been born a sinner except Jesus.Every person born, except Jesus, needs to be saved from the wrath of GodWith sufficient time and effort, we can make ourselves worthy so God would save us from his wrath.Because God is love, every sinner will be saved from his wrath.A sinner must pray the sinner's prayer to be saved.Persuading the sinner to believe the good news, is primarily the work of the preacher.A sinner must repent of their sins to be saved.Saving faith can be lost if the sinner commits grievous sins.For God to justify sinners, His just wrath against them must be satisfied.Sinners are justified when they believe.Those who believe are adopted by God and become His children.After sinners are reborn and justified, the spirit continues to work within them to make them like Christ.Becoming holy is a matter of letting go of all effort, and letting the spirit do his work within.The presence of the holy spirit producing Christ-likeness within believers means it is possible for them to become perfectly righteous in this life.The act of baptism is a guarantee of the believers' final salvation. God's work of salvation will be completed when Christ comes again and all believers receive the resurrection bodies.

The church of the living God is His representation here on the earth. When Jesus gave His life on Calvary, it wasn't only to bring individual salvation, but it was to purchase the church.

In Episode 83, we talked about the Antichrist. We're watching Bible prophecy unfold before our very own eyes, and one of the key elements of Bible prophecy is this person called the Antichrist. So, it is important that we know something of what the Bible says about the Antichrist. Knowing about the Antichrist will erase a lot of confusion and can possibly save you from a lot of pain in your life as you go down dangerous and deceptive pathways. It can also teach you the art of discernment, and how to separate good from evil.We also touch base on Satan and his motives, the world system and what it all means, and then wrapping it altogether with the Antichrist, his motives, goals and where he is placed within the pages of the Bible.If you're trying to make sense of the world around you, if you're wanting to know more about Biblical doctrines concerning the Antichrist, this is an essential episode for you!Tune in now and let's go bigger, better, and deeper!

Visual used in the podcast: Miracle story of the woman who bleed Mark 5:25 ("Your faith made you well."Romans 10:9-10, Ephesians 2:8-10, Acts 4:12Ephesians 1:13-14John 17:15-17From FMU Church website:SALVATIONSalvation is being saved from the righteous judgment of God upon the sinner. Salvation is obtained by grace alone, through faith alone, in the work of Christ alone (John 3:16) and not by our good works (Rom. 3:28; 4:1-5; 5:1; Eph. 2:8-9; Gal. 3:1-4; Matt. 7:22-23). We are chosen for salvation by God (2 Thess. 2:13) and cannot lose our salvation.JUSTIFICATION BY GRACE THROUGH FAITH ALONEJustification is being declared legally righteous by God (Rom. 4:5; 5:1; Phil. 3:9). This justification is obtained by faith alone (Rom. 4:5) in Christ alone (Acts 4:12). It is based on the work of Christ, who fulfilled the Law in his earthly ministry (1 Pet. 2:22), where he bore our sins in his body on the cross (1 Pet. 2:24). He canceled the sin debt by his sacrifice on the cross (Col. 2:14). This justification is received by faith without any ceremony, without baptism (Rom. 4:1-6), and without any works of the Law (Rom. 3:28; Gal. 2:21). Our justification is a gift from God (Rom. 3:24).SANCTIFICATIONSanctification is the process by which the Holy Spirit makes us more like Christ in all that we do, think, and desire. Our sanctification increases our ability to repent from and resist sin, which is accomplished by God's grace (1 Thess. 4:7; Eph. 2:10; 1 Tim. 4:4; 1 Pet. 3:15; 2 Tim. 2:25). This process continues all of the Christian's life and is the result of salvation, not a cause of it, nor a contributing factor to it. Furthermore, the effort of sanctification does not maintain the believer's salvation.
After drinking of the Cup of the Lord and the death of self, it's time to understand that we have a calling and a purpose in Christ. In this episode, we set the foundation that everyone has a calling and a purpose in Christ.Main Scripture:Philippians 3:1-16Additional Scripture:Ephesians 1:15-192 Timothy 1:6-12Ephesians 4:1-61 Corinthians 12:12-31Romans 11:25-32Matthew 22:1-14
We would all love a 5-10 step plan of fruitfulness for a Godly woman and I wish it was that easy. Instead God has good works prepared for us to do that Glorify our Father in Heaven.

TABLE TALK What about Sunday's message impacted you the most? Scripture Engagement: Luke 12:1-12Ephesians 6:12John 8:32Main Points: (Dragon's Dictionary) The Religious Spirit will REDEFINE terms. The Religious Spirit will RENAME terms. The Religious Spirit will REVERSE terms. Keys to Discerning Half-Truths: 1. Intimacy with God. 2. Wisdom in Community. Questions for Discussion: “When a struggle becomes an identity, it is no longer something to be conquered but something to be embraced.” - What struggle have you embraced as part of your normal life that Jesus is wanting to set you free from? “One of the half-truths we often believe is that being right is more important than being together.” - What have you put before unity in the body of Christ? What is the Father showing you about terms you have redefined in your life? Are you lacking hunger for His presence? Ask your community to pray for you. Are you teachable? Are you willing to let others speak into your life to confirm or to challenge what the Father is saying to you? Praying Together: Thank Him. What can we thank Him for? Praise Him. What is one thing about who Jesus is that we can praise Him about?Ask Him. What is a need we have or an area in which we would like to see God break through. Listen to Him: What is on God's heart about your need. What is He saying to you?
Why did Paul pray that they would know God’s will for their life?1. So that they would live (walk) a life worthy of the Lord. Colossians 1:9-10 (NLT) 9 So we have not stopped praying for you since we first heard about you. We ask God to give you complete knowledge of his will and to give you spiritual wisdom and understanding. 10 Then the way you live will always honor and please the Lord … Let’s unpack this. The word “walk” in the KJV or “live” in the NIV and NLT means a person’s pattern of daily conduct. And if we live according to God’s will for our life, or walk according to God’s will for our life, then our pattern of daily conduct will be characterized by a godly lifestyle and thus our life will please and honor God. Living a life worthy of the Lord is a recurring challenge in Paul's letters. Examples from: I Thessalonians 2:11-12Ephesians 4:1Philippians 1:27Some of the characteristics of a worthy walk:Humility and gentleness Ephesians 4:2Purity Romans 13:13Contentment Philippians 4:112. By pleasing God in every way. How? A. By bearing fruit.Examples of bearing fruit in NT:Praise and worship Hebrews 13:15Giving our money Romans 15Fruit of the Spirit Galatians 5:22-23B. Getting to know God3. We will experience God’s power in our life.Colossians 1:11 (NIV) 11 being strengthened with all power according to his glorious might so that you may have great endurance and patience, and joyfullyGod's power gives us the ability to "keep on keeping on." It is manifested in different ways in our lives: answered prayer, physical endurance, a fresh touch of his presence.4. We will have an attitude of thanksgiving. Colossians 1:12-14 (NIV) 12 giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified you to share in the inheritance of the saints in the kingdom of light. 13 For he has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of the Son he loves, 14 in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.

Does anyone else feel the pressure to make the most of this “unprecedented time” in history? But maybe this looks less like big goals or projects, and more like doing the things we’ve always done before. In this week’s episode, we’ll see that we don’t have to try and come up with a bigger and deeper goal for this time. It’s enough to show up for today, and simply live the life that is uniquely ours.Show Notes:Make the most of this time. Not because we’re in a pandemic, but because this is your life.Psalm 90:12Ephesians 5:15-16This week’s practice:Spend some time praying and reflecting on what it might mean for you to make the most of this time. As you do this, let go of any pressure you feel to do big things or to try really hard to get stuff done. Reflect on Psalm 90:12 and Ephesians 5:15-16. Write down a few thoughts on how you can be fully present in your life just as it is right now, and ask God to help you make the most of the time in a way that lines up with the life He is inviting you to live.More Resources:For more resources to help you connect with God in the chaos of motherhood, visit http://www.lindsaysterchi.com/free/.

The why, what, and how of spiritually dressing for successText: Ephesians 6:10-18 (provided below if needed) 3 Things to Understand as to the "Why of Spiritual Warfare 1. Metaphor for taking sides. 2. Synonym for the struggles of the Christian lifeQuote "Many Christians see Christianity not as an entrance into warfare but as an exit from it." Boice 3. Battle for Lordship What to WearBelt of Truth - read the Bible and believeBreastplate of Righteousness - by understandingShoes of Readiness - ready to give an accountQuote “How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him who brings good news, who publishes peace, who brings good news of happiness, who publishes salvation.” Isaiah 52:7Shield of Faith - have to trustHelmet of Salvation - be savedSword - read the Bible and apply it12 For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart. Hebrews 4:12Ephesians 6:10-1810 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. 11 Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. 12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. 13 Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. 14 Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, 15 and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. 16 In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. 17 Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.18 And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people.
Episode 028 - Low-Stress Knowing God's Will I grew up in a church community where finding out God's will was a big deal. Imagine the horror of living your whole life and then discovering you had missed God's will? So, we spent a lot of time and energy trying to get clear on God's will for us. I don't think our urgency was warranted. Today I want to share with you my stress-free guide for finding God's will. Show Notes Six principles for knowing God's will without feeling stress about it: Don't sweat the obvious stuff. If something is repeatedly covered in scripture and in alignment with Jesus' way—like not Lying or Murdering—best assume that's God's will. Get counsel from people you trust spiritually. More heads are better than one, especially if those people are spiritually mature and have practiced listening for the Spirit's lead. Consider trajectory rather than circumstances.Consider trajectory rather than circumstances. Pay attention to how you got where you are, and what God seems to have been doing in your life lately.Look for settledness rather than certainty. Certainty is often a trap, especially if we need it to find peace.Be suspicious of your desire to run away. Stop and consider why you feel this. If you're trying to avoid a hard decision, or difficult relationship, or something that will stretch you, your desire to run may not be from God.Focus on character and relationships. Consider that what you're praying about might not be a high priority to God.

Tasks, food, clothing, lists, prayers, views, talks, things to do, things to see, things to pay. And in the midst of it all, a call to come away and be at rest. I pray that you find a little circle for yourself today, a place to be at rest, even in your heart while you do the things you need to do.Love to you all,~ RaeThe podcast will always be free, but you can support us on Patreon.com and get extra audio each month.
